NYC Weather Forecast: Sweltering Temperatures On The Way

NEW YORK, NY — The streets are about to get steamy. New York City will see a warm, sunny weekend before sweltering temperatures arrive early next week, the latest National Weather Service forecast shows.

Friday's high near 75 degrees will be cooler than usual despite mostly sunny skies, the forecast says. But the weekend will be considerably warmer, with Saturday's high rising to near 84 and Sunday's high getting up near 89.

Sunshine is expected for both days, though some clouds will roll in at night, according to the forecast.

But Monday will be a scorcher with a high near 95, which would tie the record high set in 1929, the weather service says. The mercury could hit 90 again Tuesday before things cool down later in the week.
